What sort of differences ?

Mmmmm, I could list many things about other places that you may not be aware of.

Life in England has:

No snowdrifts several feet high around your house when you have to go to work, day after day.
No thick pointy ice on the pavements that don't allow you to walk without fear of falling. (& believe me we do fall)
No Winter days so bitterly cold that you cannot go out without risk of frostbite
No Summer days so hot & humid all you can do is stay inside & try to stop from melting
No beautiful Summer evenings where you go outside & get bitten to death by the bugs.
No Raccoons to eat your roof, porch etc.
No squirrels to get in your attic & chew your electrical wiring.

You are not the only one's taxed to death, believe me.
Nor are you the only ones that have kids running the housing projects.

Nor do you have Politicians that think High school starting hours should change to 11:30am to allow teenagers to sleep in. Honest!

I could go on & on but will stop after naming just a few of the gripes from another country.

Sounds to me like you picked the wrong place to live .. Now whos faults that then ?

Your best bet is to spend all your money then get back to England , live the dream

Well as I understood it they dont't celebrate Christmas day so much, its more the festical of Three Kings that takes place in early January

I see so we sort of will get 2 Christmas times woo hooo hmmmm hang on more expense maybe ? damn lol

It's in the works. Blighty here I come.

Blighty ? dont you mean Shighty !

Nobody comes here unless a foreignor ! So what are you ?

Are you being forced ?
Have you done a bank job and on the run ?

how sweet that you are only too happy to help.

may I suggest posting sober in the future?
